Connector Types

Our coaxial inserts 1.0/2.3 are suitable for the insertion of mixed layout connectors DIN 41612 (pattern M). These inserts feature a slide-on coupling mechanism, which ensures a short connect-disconnect time. Impedance accuracy, fast and easy assembly as well as high reproducibility due to the full crimp cable entry are typical characteristics of these HUBER+SUHNER connectors. The 1.0/2.3 inserts are suitable for applications up to 4 GHz. 

4.3-10 connectors offer very low PIM performance, with the added advantages of low weight and compactness. A key feature of this connector is the separation of the electrical and mechanical plane, which results in a lower coupling torque and the possibility of offering the connector with screw, hand-screw and quick-lock design, thus simplifying the installation effort and offering for all mechanisms a very high and reliable electrical performance independently from the torque applied.

Also available in 4.3-10 Plus interface.

7/16 connectors are mechanically very rugged coaxial connectors with a screw lock mechanism. They have a characteristic impedance of 50 ohm and are applicable with excellent electrical properties up to 7.5 GHz. Transmission of medium to high power with radio transmitters and low PIM transmission of received signals such as in mobile phone base stations are typical applications.

Our BMA blind mate connectors open up special dimensions in microwave applications up to 18 GHz. Bredengen offers a range of connectors for fixed as well as floating configurations with any axial or radial misalignment taken out by the outer contact of the jacks. The BMA series presents an outstanding range of products featuring high reliability and ease of assembly. Our BMA connectors are intermateable with the OSP connector series. 

BNC is a popular connector series featuring a two stud bayonet coupling mechanism, which is particularly useful for frequently coupled and uncoupled RF connections with frequencies up to 4 GHz. BNC connectors are available for 50 ohm and 75 ohm applications.

BNC 50Ω

BNC 75Ω

BNC 75Ω REAL

Real 75 ohm BNC connectors are suitable for applications up to 3 GHz, contrary to the conventional 75 ohm BNC connector types, which are applicable up to 1 GHz only. With full crimp technique, they can be assembled quickly and easily to all convenient cable types. Thanks to good electrical properties they are suitable for different applications, such as broadcast, telecommunication, etc.

Our BNO twin connectors are two pin bayonet coupled (same bayonet locking mechanism as BNC) connectors for use with balanced twin-conductor cables with 75 ohm to 130 ohm impedance. They have polarised contacts and are not intermateable with BNC. Our BNO twin connectors are suitable for applications up to 200 MHz (i.e. computer networks and process control). 

BNT triaxial connectors are RF connectors with a bayonet coupling mechanism and three concentric contacts (inner conductor, inner screen and outer screen) for triaxial cables. Våre BNT connectors are intermateable with BNC connectors, but only the inner conductor and outer screen are connected. BNT connectors are suitable for applications up to 3 GHz (inner coaxial line). 

C connectors are medium size RF connectors with two-stud bayonet mechanism which allows quick and easy coupling and decoupling. The C connectors provide 50 ohm impedance and the frequency range (connector interface) is specified for applications up to 11 GHz. 

MCX subminiature snap-on connectors offer an excellent blend of size, weight, durability and performance for applications such as mobile and fixed telecommunications, in GPS applications and in test and measurement systems for testing instruments and apparatus. They are designed for frequencies up to 6 GHz and are tested according to the international standard CECC 22220. MCX connectors meet all the high requirements that micro coaxial connectors are expected to satisfy today. 

MHV (Miniature High Voltage) are coaxial miniature high voltage connectors with 5 kV rms test voltage (mated pairs). MHV connectors have a working voltage up to 1.6 kV rms in mated condition and are suitable for applications up to 300 MHz. MHV connectors are of similar design to BNC connectors but the insulators protrude over the outer contacts to give a degree of contact-voltage proof when unmated. However, if a high degree of protection in the unmated condition is required, use of series SHV is recommended. 

MMBX connectors are especially developed for board-to-board and board-to-module RF interconnections. Along with MBX, our board-to-board portfolio provides highest flexibility for today’s and future radio module applications. MMBX connectors offer an operation frequency up to 12.4 GHz. The series contains of a wide range of board and cable connectors with a minimum board-to-board distance of only 6.7 mm. 

MMCX connectors are intended for use in applications where the smallest dimensions have to be achieved. These connectors can be used in applications from DC to 6 GHz. The reliable ‘snap-on’ coupling mechanism ensures that the electrical parameters are consistently reproduced. Due to its non-slotted outer contact, the MMCX series provides a low RF leakage. In addition, SMT MMCX connectors fully meet today’s SMT (Surface Mount Technology) requirements with superior design, material selection and packaging. SMT connectors are suitable to all reflow-soldered SMT-PCBs where impedance matching or screened signal transmission is necessary. 

The snap-on connector family MMPX is the most ideal coaxial-to-PCB system solution for operating frequencies up to 65 GHz (80 GHz) and data rates up to 80 Gbps. The comprehensive product range consists of cable connectors and assemblies, PCB connectors and adapters to open standards. MMPX connectors feature excellent electrical performance at smallest mechanical dimensions. The broadband characteristics, the small size and the outstanding performance permit new solutions for applications in numerous markets such as high speed digital testing and radio frequency testing (60 GHz WPAN), industrial, mobile communication, space and defence. 

N Connectors are now available with 50 ohm and 75 ohm impedance. The frequency range extends to 18 GHz, depending on the connector and cable type. The screw-type coupling mechanism provides a sturdy and reliable connection.

N connectors are available for flexible cables, for semi-rigid cables and for corrugated copper tube cables. Cable entries include clamp, crimp and solder types, as well as Quick-Fit for corrugated copper tube cables.

NEX10® interface offers very low PIM performance together with a robust design and small size. Another key feature of NEX10® is the separation of electrical contact from mechanical contact area, which yields a low PIM and high return loss performance independent of the coupling mechanism or applied torque. This characteristics also gives the possibility of offering the connector plug with screw, hand-screw and quick-lock designs, thus simplifying the installation effort while guaranteeing a very high electrical performance for all coupling mechanisms. Additionally, the interface specific weather protection boot provides guaranteed protection against corrosion and extreme weather conditions. 

PC 3.5 connectors are precision connectors for use in microwave applications up to 26.5 GHz. They are especially suitable for use with semi-rigid cables and microwave components. They are intermateable with SMA and SK (2.92 mm) connectors. The air dielectric interface and the more durable construction results in a superior repeatability, which further enhances the performance. 

The QLA series contains connectors with a quick latch coupling mechanism: connection is achieved by simply pushing the plug into the jack. Three latching springs automatically engage, thereby securing the mated connectors against axial forces. No twisting action is required. The connectors are easily released by slightly pulling back the outer sleeve of the plug. This coupling mechanism provides a fast and reliable connection for applications up to 1.4 GHz.  

QMA coaxial connectors are in accordance with QLF standard and available with 50 ohm impedance. The frequency range extends to 18 GHz, depending on the connector and cable type. However, most of the QMA connectors are return loss optimised for frequencies up to 6 GHz.

The interface is based on the SMA dimension, but instead of a threaded coupling mechanism, a new snap-lock mechanism is used. The QMA interface has a very similar performance to the SMA, but it additionally offers an easier, faster and safer coupling operation, helping customers to save significantly on time during production.

The packaging density of QMA is increased compared to SMA connectors thanks to the fact that no torque spanner is required to fasten the coupling nut. QMA is not intermateable with SMA. QMA connectors are also available as a waterproof version (IP68) and are compatible with QLF standard.

QN coaxial connectors are available with 50 ohm impedance. The frequency range extends to 11 GHz, depending on the connector and cable type, however most of the QN connectors are return loss optimised for frequencies up to 6 GHz. The interface is based on the inner dimensions of the N connector, but, instead of a threaded coupling mechanism, a snap-lock mechanism is used.

The QN interface has a very similar performance to N, but in addition it offers an easier, faster and safe coupling operation, helping customers to save significantly on time during production of their systems. The packaging density of QN increased compared to N thanks to the fact that no torque spanner is required to fasten the coupling nut. Additionally, the outer dimensions of QN are smaller than N, leading to the advantage that even TNC-size flanges can be used at QN connectors.

QN connectors are also available as a Waterproof version .

SHV (Safe High Voltage) connectors provide more secure handling: centre contacts are well recessed to prevent shock hazards in unmated condition. When mating a connector pair, the outer conductor contact is made prior to the inner conductor contacts. SHV connectors are suitable for all high voltage applications up to 5 kV DC or 3.5 kV rms. These connectors are typically used in nuclear instruments or test and measurement equipment. Voltages are valid for both, the mated and the unmated condition. 

SK connectors are precision connectors for microwave applications up to 40 GHz. They are intermateable with series SMA and PC 3.5. They have a high mechanical stability and an excellent repeatability. The shortened male pin ensures a non-destructive mating process. The glass beads, when used in conjunction with the SK launchers, enable the connectors to be replaced without disturbing the hermetic seal. For a mechanical decoupling between glass bead and internal microwave circuit, stress relief contacts are available. 

SMA connectors are precision connectors for microwave applications up to 18 GHz. The extended frequency version operates with excellent return loss performances up to 26.5 GHz. There is a large variety of applications for SMA connectors, such as in telecom, test and measurement, instruments, avionics, etc.

SMA is classified into the two categories standard SMA connectors for high-end applications, or applications subject to rough conditions, and ECO SMA connectors for high volume

.

SMB subminiature connectors are suitable for applications from DC up to 4 GHz. The SMB snap-on mechanism provides a fast and reliable connection for applications with high packing density.

The SMC subminiature connector series is based on the same design as the SMB and SMS series. Due to its screw-on coupling mechanism, the SMC subminiature connectors are suitable for applications up to 10 GHz. The SMC screw-on mechanism permits a vibration-proof connection suitable for semi-permanent connections and for use in mobile equipment with low VSWR requirements.

SMP connectors provide a robust, proven and fully compatible plug-in solution for applications up to 40 GHz. SMP connectors have been MIL-SPEC qualified for defense and space flight hardware. The design of the interface and treatment of materials provide true compatibility as well as guaranteed mechanical performance over the mating life of the connector with all MIL-STD-348 SMP connectors in the market. 

TNC connectors are threaded RF connectors applicable from DC up to 11 GHz. 50 ohm TNC and 75 ohm TNC connectors are intermateable without restrictions.

TNC 50Ω

The threaded coupling mechanism improves control over the interface dimensions and allows them to be used under a higher environmental load than BNC, especially under a high vibration load.

TNC 75Ω

Within the internationally standardised TNC mating face dimensions a perfect 75 ohm characteristic impedance cannot be realised. However, at frequencies up to 1 GHz the small impedance deviation is negligible for practical applications. The threaded coupling mechanism allows them to be used under higher environmental load than BNC.

UHF connectors do not have defined impedance. They are intended for applications up to 200 MHz where mechanically robust connectors are required. They are mateable with 4 mm banana plugs.
